Rebuilding Canadian Manufacturing One Maker at a Time
Canada must regain the ability to meet its own manufacturing needs—from consumer goods to critical industrial components. Makers Connect is reconnecting fabricators, builders, manufacturers, and innovators to create a national network of agile, independent producers.
We’re committed to empowering small businesses to thrive independently while creating the tools to work together when larger-scale solutions are needed.
Independent Strength: Makers and manufacturers operate their own businesses, specializing in areas from 3D fabrication to traditional machining.
Shared Capacity: Idle machines, tools, and facilities can be temporarily shared with others to meet demand or reduce downtime.
National Adaptability: This decentralized but connected network can rapidly scale, shift, or retool during times of national need—ensuring Canadian-made goods stay in Canadian hands.
Together, small Canadian manufacturers can build a strong, self-reliant economy—one product, one tool, one solution at a time.
